We're to pay .065% four times a year or 6.50% for Ohio selling taxes.  Will all that info come with the license? Will they give us a form to send with the tax money or tell us when we have to have in by a certain date? Why can't we just have fun making and selling stuff? It seems the gov at all levels tax everything. Thanks, Patsy V. 1/11/2012 9:02 AM   Submit Question or Comment User      Email      Privacy Guaranteed Email will NOT be published!
